Abstract

Interactions between fault tolerance and real-time requirements make the design of fault tolerant avionics for launch vehicles a challenge due to the necessity to handle time constrained execution of asynchronous events concurrently with potential faults. Results of designed experiments run on a prototype fault tolerant network are described. The shape of the probability density function of different tasks has been measured. Conclusions are drawn about guaranteeing task completion time
